If everyone could post where they live right here in order to better organize both events and the chapter that would be great. Optimally, post your city and region of Missouri, if you don't feel comfortable with that post whatever you feel comfortable with. This is the first step to creating the most successful BRS chapter!!!
I am in Columbia. I like running completely barefoot at an asphault trail in Cosmos park and I use VFFs for the MKT trail. Maybe a statewide run from one end of the MKT trail to the other would be a great MO event.
